Miami’s calendar is heating up, hurricane aside, and this weekend is packed with a variety of events to keep your social schedule full. Think local music showcases, art-house film screenings, punk rallies, and salsa festivals. Whether you’re getting spooky early with secret location parties, or vibing to psych trance and Latin beats, this weekend’s lineup promises thrills before Halloween even arrives.
If you’re itching for live music, Friday and Saturday are set with standout performances, from Dorian Electra’s flamboyant show to Usurp Synapse’s hardcore intensity at Gramps. Salsa lovers can spice up their weekend at the Miami Beach Salsa Fest, while punk fans can rally for a cause with the Punk In Miami Beach event, and for those craving something grittier, check out Bad Reputation Bike Night at The Corner, the perfect spot to rev your engines, meet fellow bikers and rock out to some hard-hitting tracks.
